Just feeling a little run down

So every morning Dad has gone to the oncology clinic for follow up labs. These last several days he has been feeling very nauseated. Thankfully, they gave him some nausea medicine when he first started treatment, which he is taking and they give him IV medication at the clinic. He is very tired, and a little run down. He really doesn't have much energy and you can hear it in his voice. He hasn't been interested in eating when he feels so nauseated. So instead, to make the most of his calories, he has been drinking ensure and boost. Yesterday Dad had to get IV fluids to help hydrate him. Today they gave him steroids to boost his appetite and energy level. He sounded like he had more pep to his step this afternoon, a welcome change to what I've heard of him lately. The good thing is that the nausea lasts 7-10 days, so hopefully we are nearing the end of this. Late this week they will start Neupogen on Dad to boost his white blood cell production. As to be expected, his WBC count is still low- making him at risk for infection. Mom has taken such good care of him though, constantly vigilant of washing hands, cleaning everything and having his swish and spit to keep his mouth free of infections or sores. Fore the time being, Dad goes to the clinic then comes home to rest. Hopefully this time will allow his body to fight the cancer into remission. Keep your prayers strong!
